Titanic III

The historic boat The Titanic is making it’s come back. In 2022 or 2021 the new replica of The Titanic should be ready to set sail. Clive Palmer, an Australian businessman had stated in September this year that The Titanic will be making its return and that this time the boat will really be indestructible. Technically this should be called The Titanic IIII because the original Titanic had two twin boats named Olympic and The Britannic. Olympic wasn’t actually built to set sail but The Britannic was and it sunk just like the original.  The idea of this replica was first thought of in 2012 but after a dispute with the Chinese government it was put to a stop in 2015. However we now have the money and are able to build the ship. The ship is currently in China where it is being built. The boat will set start out in China, then to Dubai, and lastly England. Though this ship is built as a replica a few things have been changed. For instance it can hold more people than the original. The new ship can hold 2,400 passengers plus a 900 person crew. The new boat is thirteen feet wider than the original to increase stability. Not to mention the new boat is equipped with updated navigation features and special precautions. 

 

If you could, would you go on the new Titanic? 



Do you think it is a good or bad idea to make another Titanic? 



How do you think someone thought to make another Titanic?

  • I wouldn't want to go on the replica because I wouldn't want to be out in the ocean for that long. However it would be cool to explore it. I think it's a good idea because there is a lot of history about the titanic and with a new model it will hopefully be much safer. I think someone thought of the idea because the Titanic is a big point in history and they want people in our generation to know more about it. 

  • If I could, I would go on the replica because it would be fun to sail around, and there will still be lots of history on this boat, even if it isn't the original one. It dosen't really matter to me if they build another ship, because it's just another cruise ship but with perhaps a little more history. 

  • Yes because I trust the crew memebers that I will be safe and also it would be cool sitting in a replica of the Titanic with was I big part of our history. Well they probably thought itr would be cool to make a replica to show the peole what it was really like in it.

  • Yes, of course, I would go on the titanic if it were to come back. There is so much history in it. Even if it is not the same one its a replica and since global warming is melting all the ice, we wouldn't hit an iceberg this time. I think it is a great idea but some people might be hesitant to get on the boat. 

  • I would go on the new titanic because with all the advanced technology in the ship, it would be near impossible to crash or sink it unless someone is trying to sink it. I think it is a good idea to make another titanic because it would be a massive tourist attraction, and there is no down side to building it.

    • So what you're stating here is that repeating a certain part of History is a good idea? The part you think is good is just the fact that its a wonderful boat and not the fact that it sunk right? If the Titanic repeated and ended up sinking would you be upset, satisfied or neutral to the fact that once again history was repeated? 

  • I don't think I would go on it just because of the history. Also, I feel like I would get bored of beening on the boat like the 4th day. I think its a waste we already got cruise ships. What is the point of this? Tehy were probably interested in the boat because it was huge and a disaster.

    • I agree with you about why they wanted to remake it. What I think is that since attempts were made to remake it someone who was interested or liked to learn about the Titanic wanted to turn the disaster into a masterpiece so it was finally perfected. 

  • I'm not sure if I'd go on the new Titanic for it's first trip, but if that trip turned out to be a sucess, then I'd definantly want to give it a try! I think it was a good idea to build a new one. With modern techneques and technology, it's more possible to create a Titanic that can succeed in it's travels. 

    • That's a good plan. What would you do if the boat was a success and now it was your turn to go on the second trip and the nhistory repeats and sinks? Keep in mind it does of advanced tech compared to the last two failed boats, but still the situation is scary. even if the boat sank and you survived, would the strip have been worth it ?
